      Gives you an extra layer of support and are designed to be worn under lever belts.

      Cerberus make a great Neoprene one.

      Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.

                  @goosehd thanks! The first 200 or so activities were exclusively mountain and road biking when I lived in the Pacific Northwest. Then when I moved to the Midwest I still rode my bikes seasonally but added in a few hundred yoga sessions and walks to heal my back. The last 300 activities or so have been mostly weight training. I've been on Strava a little over 10 years now.

                    I bought a lever belt around 15 years ago, it's still going strong (shame I can't say the same about myself!). It's got a wonderful patina from sweat and chalk that I'm sure would be appreciated around here.

                    A couple of weeks back I said my current short-term goal was to get back to running a full 5k. I've been running 1-2x a week, with walks an extra 2x or so. I can't quite hit the full 5k, but today I got 4k on the trot, a short walk to catch my breath and then finished the distance. I think next week I'll manage the whole thing!

                      I made it the full 5k this morning, my very next attempt! I just kept lying to myself, just make it to the next imaginary marker, then when I get there just make it to the next!

                      I even made it under 30 minutes, which was a stretch goal.

                      Next up is to solidify the new baseline and hit the distance repeatedly for about 2 weeks. Then push on speed, I’d like to get to 25 minutes, an average of 5 minutes per kilometre.

                        Starting to bring down my weight for the summer. Winter high was 198lbs, should be at 190lbs by next week. Keeping protein around 200g a day but lowering calories from 3000k to 2400k and experimenting with timing my carbohydrates around workouts. At almost 50 years old I’m finally realizing gains are made in the kitchen and on rest days.

                          Looking good @jdwaid! 💪

                          The SBD belts that @goosehd mentioned are very good. The other brand to consider is Pioneer.

                          Pioneer Belts

                          The top one is a hybrid belt that uses a leather core wrapped in Cordura. The bottom one is in orange crocodile skin...
